Hi,
Well, I managed to blow up my not very old XO type 2 rear mech at bikepark on Monday 🙁 I’d been really happy with its performance up until then, but a bit unsure about what to go for as a replacement. Basically, the carbon pulley arm sheared landing a mid sized drop, pinging itself all over the trail and bending my mech hanger in the process!! Seems a bit lame on a nearly £200rrp mech….I’m wondering if it’s worth emailing SRAM about it, not fit for purpose?? Anyway…I need to get something sorted as I’m bikeless atm… I’m not gonna spend silly money again, thinking either X9 type 2 or maybe going shimano instead with either Zee or Xt Shadow+, I can get a rear shifter for similar price to SRAM rear. I’ve always been a SRAM fan until this happened, but new shimano looks decent. Anyone run both, thoughts please….
Oh, I’m running 1×10 34 nw with 12×36 cassette btw…cheers
